Pros
- To begin with, I just received them and listened to them for the first time. Before this, I used Beyerdynamic DX120 ie for 6 years. - The packaging is just gorgeous. You open it and immediately understand that you have a product for people who are doing well in life) It helps a little during depression. If you can afford them, then everything is not so bad for you! - Appearance and body immediately make it clear that the headphones with a claim to audiophile positioning. Although, if someone buys plugs for 10k (like me) or even for 14k (as they are now sold), then he is not all right with his head, and / or everything is all right with his money. - Legibility is really high. If you have enough experience and willpower, you can distinguish any instrument. They seem to play separately. The detail is very high, never heard of this before. I did not observe such an effect even on open Sennheiser HD 558. - I have a very thin ear canal (I found out about this when I went to make custom ear pads for buyers - the second normal in-ear headphones after Sennheiser IE4), so it was a surprise to me that the headphones do not fall out of my ears. Although they are not small and metal. The last time this happened was on the tiny light IE4. When I buy a normal source, I will listen to the details on it and add it in the comments.
Cons
- The first thing I noticed when I first listened to it was the drop dead low tops. Because of what the sound seems to be squeezed, squeaking (: I found the peak by ear between 4 and 5 kHz). I did not expect this from headphones for 10k. The sound is like that of very high quality Chinese tweeters, but with bass. There is no middle, from this there is no volume and space. Someone said that there are no high ones - this is garbage, there are quite a lot of them. But the creaking range among them is just dofiga. Electric guitars are mind boggling. I hate this range (at one time I refused AC / DC on ie4 due to the peculiarities of the sound. After switching to buyers, I was able to listen again. This range stands out here - just a kick. Scorpions - Send Me An Angel (Acoustica) It is impossible to listen to the chorus , vocals of extended notes just fall into this range. This is a very unexpected feeling, because Reference Audio shows a slight difference in the measurements of the frequency response, the screen is attached. I chose headphones according to the frequency response, including, and I should have heard a completely different sound. The range above is worked out with a bang, I missed it) There is enough bass, they sound more natural than all other frequencies) The stereo panorama is also excellent for plugs. While I hope it's xs what. Still, they are expensive. I will ate the review. With the DX120 back in the day, the first impression was the lack of top end. /About a month later/ In short, I tried a piece. The main disadvantage for me is the hump at 4 kilohertz, which cuts out the brain (Disturbed - Warrior (Asylum) 0:50). Maybe it's a feature of my ear canal, standing waves, resonances, all that. There are no other shortcomings. Headphones are also very sensitive to the quality of the recording. They reproduce exactly what you feed them. I have never had headphones that are more sensitive to the material and bring so little character to the sound. If not for 4 kilohertz . Eh .
